Convexity measures how bond duration changes with yield, capturing nonlinear price-yield relationship missed by duration alone.

Trin-for-trin guide

  1. 1Input bond parameters: coupon, yield, maturity
  2. 2Calculate convexity
  3. 3Estimate price change accounting for both duration and convexity

Løste eksempler

Input
Long-duration bond with high convexity
Resultat
Larger price gains in falling yields than losses in rising yields
Convexity positive for bullet bonds

Almindelige fejl at undgå

  • Using duration alone for large yield changes
  • Neglecting option-adjusted analysis for callable bonds

Ofte stillede spørgsmål

Can convexity be negative?

Yes, for callable bonds when rates fall and issuer likely calls.
